March is International Womens Month, and Craft Beer has enlisted some of the most talented women in the industry to drive the narrative. This month, we’ll be introducing you to the women of LHBCo, in all departments, Sales, Brewing, Taproom, Marketing and Finance!

We’ll be highlighting women in our company weekly, so this article will continue to evolve. Enjoy and as always thanks for the love!

Meet our Taproom GM – Kate Ballenger. Kate doesn’t love to be photographed but we bribed her with a 10AM Godmother, and she was all about it. Sometimes, all it takes is an Imperial Stout 🙂

What song plays when you walk into a room?

Hungry Eyes – Dirty Dancing Soundtrack

How do you see women influencing the growth and diversification of craft beer?

When I first started working at craft beer bars here in Boston (2011), there were very few women that would fan girl over craft beer. Now, I consistently see that half of our taproom patrons are women. The Lady consumer demographic is super vital to the success of most breweries.

What’s your day job at LHBCo?

General Manager of the LHBCo Taproom.

What’s one piece of advice that you’d give to women looking to rise in a male dominated industry?

Your opinion matters! Don’t doubt that for one second.

How did you get into craft beer?

I grew up down the road from the original Stone location, & would go to Pizza Port after tournaments. Craft beer has been part of my lifestyle since I was a wee one.

What’s your go to beer, after you’ve achieved something great?

Glorious IPA – all of them.

What’s next for women in craft beer?

I think we’ll see a major surge of women working in production. There’s a younger generation that may turn out to be more trade focused, that’s getting introduced to craft beer at a much younger age.

Meet our Regional Manager for New England – Crystal. We caught up with her, over a Boomsauce a little after 11AM (prime time for Boomsauce, obviously) and here’s what she had to say.

What song plays when you walk into a room?

Naturally…anything by Cardi B or Beyonce. When I’m not feeling sassy, “September” by Earth Wind and Fire.

How do you see women influencing the growth and diversification of craft beer?

I think this entire industry as a whole could use a little woman’s touch. Whether that’s through the lens of marketing, brewing, sales, management–diversification as a whole is key in influencing change in this industry. I personally take every bit of professional experience I’ve had (preivously was in Human Resources and Recruitment) and infuse it into what I’m trying to accomplish with our New England sales teams.

What’s your day job at LHBCo?

I am the Regional Sales Manager, I manage our Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and New York markets. The majority of my responsibilities involve making sure our sales team is executing our top-level goals as a company, growing and developing our team, managing our distributors, and strengthening our key account relationships. It’s a whirlwind to say the least, but I thoroughly enjoy this journey in my career!

What’s one piece of advice that you’d give to women looking to rise in a male dominated industry?

Trust yourself and trust your gut. When something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Be assertive when you need to. I’ve realized my instinct and assertiveness has contributed to my growth in my career. I do also at times (certainly not always, because I work with some incredible people!) feel like it’s easy to not be taken as seriously because I’m a woman, and a woman in sales. I trust myself because I know that I’m doing everything in best interest of Lord Hobo, and it’s all backed by my experience and education.

How did you get into craft beer?

My experience in marketing, sales, and HR made me realize the insane opportunity that’s in this industry. I saw it was truly a fusion of all of my skills and a way to make a meaning of my past. For example, I know sales separately from knowing marketing; I see myself serving as a liaison between the two because I know both sides. I apply my sales experience as a Recruiter in knowing exactly how to achieve aggressive goals to help grow our business. I apply my HR experience into management mostly, I want our entire organizing to know and understand our culture.

What’s your go to beer, after you’ve achieved something great?

Sorry LHBCo team, but it’s definitely a glass of whiskey or scotch.

What’s next for women in craft beer?

We just keep doing what we know how to do, whether that’s sales, marketing, brewing, accounting. It’s important to continue to have a voice and shine some light on how fewer women there are in the industry but I don’t see it as a set back, I look at everything as an opportunity to make a positive impact.

If you could have a beer with any of your female heroes, who would it be and why?

I read a book to my daughters every night called “Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls” and one woman’s story really inspired my oldest daughter, Grace. She’s an engineer at heart and intrinsically was so interested in Margaret Hamilton, a computer scientist who went to MIT and worked on the Apollo 11 space mission. She was able to trust herself and her skills when a major error was going to abort the mission. Ultimately resulting in a successful moon landing. Anyone who sparks a light in my daughter’s eye, I want to meet.

On Saturday March 23rd, LHBCo is hosting a bus trip up to New Hampshire’s Ragged Mountain! Just 2 hours from our brewery in Woburn, MA Ragged offers 200+ acres of trails, 98 percent state-of-the-art snowmaking coverage, five lifts — including New Hampshire’s only high speed six-pack. Catch the bus from the taproom at 7am. On the mountain, we’ll be joined by our good friends at Parlor Skis. They will be on site with their sick mobile demo trailer for fittings and on mountain demos. After you’re done shredding that gnar for the day join us on mountain for a sponsored apres ski event at the Stone Hearth Bar. Then, an official after party at the LHBCo taproom when you get back!

Tickets are $100 and include bus, lift ticket and and LHBCo/Parlor Skis swag pack. Reserve your spot on the bus here

There’s limited availability and the deadline to sign up is March 21 so make sure you get your tickets soon!

As we continue to grow, we look forward to leveraging our brand platform and voice to highlight those that inspire and influence us on a daily basis. We’ve had the honor of partnering with The SHIFT Beat Tape series, an experience that gives producers 8 hours to create a beat tape which brings incredibly talented, national music producers to the forefront of their craft when it comes to production.

For the last session, we caught up with Latrell James, the Boston/Dorchester native, who gives back to his community through providing access to production studios and has a raving fan base. Not to mention, the dude kills it on every stage he touches…

Photo: @bredhampton

So Latrell, how would you describe what you do in the music industry for those who may not know?

What brought you to The SHIFT Beat Tape Series?

I recall The Arcitype doing this full beat tape in a day a couple of years back. I always that it was a great challenge to producers and forces them to be strategic in the creative process because of time limitations. I was very fortunate to have him reach out and include me as a part of the series.

New England has a tremendous amount of talent when it comes to music, what would you say differentiates your style?

I feel like I represent the soul of the city. Fun, witty and serious soul. I’m from Dorchester, which is a melting pot of cultures and people. My music reflects that.

Which LHBCo beer would you say pairs best with your beat tape while listening?

Glorious. I think I had 2 of those in the creation of that beat tape with my brother – but Boomsauce is by far my favorite LHBCo beer.
